Temporarily located at Daniel Stalpertstraat 104/106.
As you can see in the picture, the front of the shop is a work of art.
Inside it is light and airy with pale-coloured wood on the walls. There are two adjoining rooms and in one corner is an old PacMan machine. Electronica music.
Media has an extensive menu of quality grass and hash at very reasonable prices. Soft drinks are also cheaper here than in the centre (no alcohol here).
To find this shop and others in the area, check out the Map of Albert Cuyp market area.

Dropped in a couple times in mid June 07. Their temporary location is on Daniel Staalstraat basically directly behind the original location. (though by the time this is read the original shop may have reopened) got the 3tje,and K2, both at 6 I believe, both good quality. Friendly, comfy, roomy, poolroom, fruit on the tables a nice touch. The staff says the renovated main shop to be re opened by mid July, and claims it will be stunning, look forward to hearing about that. But liked the location that we visited, hope both stay open.

I discovered Club Media (just "Media" if you want to sound local!) at the end of a trip in December and bought a few strains "Skunk", "3TJE" and "Hippie". I don't remember a great deal about the first two, but Hippie was one of the best smokes of the trip. When I returned in February we stayed in an apartment near the Leidseplein square and Media was only a 15 minute walk away. The first time we went we bought 3.8g of Hippie for 23euros, and 3.4g of Dutch Punch for 23euros. All Media deals are pre-weighed, but they are always perfectly cured, never too dry. When we returned to Media the next day we again bought two 23euro deals of Hippie and DP, and also got some White Widow, I can't remember prices on that though. We stopped and had a smoke, it's currently at a temporary location but the place is really nice, sofas covered in cool newspaper print fabric, and a table in the middle with loads of fruit to eat. The budtender was friendly, gave us free papers, tips and drinks each time and was happy to talk about what was on offer. I'm almost loathe to recommend it too much so they don't start selling out of strains, but I would have to urge anyone in Amsterdam to go there, it's all organic weed aswell so it's my favourite shop now!

We found the old shop in the G. Doustraat. It's closed. At the door was the new address in "Ferdinand Bolstraat". We didn't find this shop although we searched a while. Because of hard rain, we went to Katsu which we already knew. The new "Club Media" must be somewhere around there!

I can only support earlier reviews. We also smoked the Hindu Kush (3.8G/E23) and can vouch for its potency and mellowness. We also received the free packages of rolling papers and packaged tips, which was a wonderful bonus, as was the free fruit on the coffee table (we didn't actually eat any, but I liked the touch.) Details matter, and
Media covered all the details.

Club Media was an excellent place to buy some great organic hash and buds. The guy at the counter was very nice, but not too talkative. The buds tasted great and made me feel great. The shop moved around the block of it's original location, but it still is easy to find. Some nice restaurants in the area.

The best Hindu Kush I have ever tasted. After finding this coffee shop we didn't bother going anywhere else to get our ganja. I would go back to Amsterdam just for Club Media.

Can't say enuff good things about this place. All the staff were friendly (bloody hard to find in the dam these days) giving free Rizla plus Media roach book with every purchase. Hindu Kush is their speciality and at 23euros for 4 grams, well worth the walk.

Media is owned by the sons of the guy that runs the Flying Dutchman Seed Co. A really cool shop with good prices and lots of strains you don't see at any other shops.

The best. Mostly locals, organic is the main reason though. Quality is like tweede kamer
